I want to upgrade memory from the current 4GB.
I bought this PC in late 2011, and here are the specs:
http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/category.aspx?c=uk&l=en&s=bsd&cs=ukbsdt1&category_id=4325&mfgpid=2882640&chassisid=-1&stype=1&Tab=Parts
which seems to be the right page,
however I'm having trouble remembering how many slots are available, and how many units can fit into each slot.
At the top of the page it says that the max memory is 16GB. That would be great if it was, but for some reason I had it in my head that the max was 8GB...
I also have a feeling that it's only units of 2048 that will fit - again I could be wrong about this... but obviously I'd like to buy 4 or 8 if these would fit and it would save money.
Could someone here confirm what the max memory and slots are for this machine, according to specs I posted above?
I've looked in device manager and sysinfo on Windows but this was no help.
(I also tried actually calling Dell sales to speak to someone but the robot keeps just hanging up on my call!)
